"see" Text Editor

[TERRY_HUFF]

PERHAPS 20 YEARS AGO I BOUGHT A 'C' COMPILER
WRITTEN MY MARK DESMET. INCLUDED WITH THE
PACKAGE WAS THE "SEE" TEXT EDITOR. AT THAT
TIME IT WAS POSSIBLE TO BUY THE SOURCE CODE
FOR THE TEXT EDITOR, BUT I DID NOT DO SO.
NOW I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT SOURCE CODE.
IT IS NOT MY INTENT TO STEAL OR VIOLATE ANY
COPYRIGHT LAW. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF
ANYONE HAS THIS ITEM, AND WHAT THE LEGAL
SITUATION MIGHT BE FOR HIM TO GIVE IT TO ME.

THANX.

you can find the c compiler called Pcc at simtel.net
"DeSmet lives on in the PCC shareware compiler although it's never been upgraded from its pre-ANSI beginnings.

as far as source code, i do not know.

if you are wanting to build your own useable txt editor from src. you might want to look at any one of the GPL'd txt editors, which there are too many to list. (vi, emacs....)
check here for more listings
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/...ftware/Editors/ (http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Open_Source/Software/Editors/)

and for a free up-to-data compiler. try the gcc 3.2 can also get gcc++ as well.
and then you install cygwin so that you are able to build win32 executables.

if you want a a dos compiler. there is watcom c , Djgpp, Pacific C
